Onsite Swiss Army Knife: Battery Energy Storage as a Resource for Survivability and Flexibility (Web-based, On-Demand)
Battery storage is a versatile onsite energy resource that can support an array of facility goals, such as reducing energy costs, protecting against utility outages, and facilitating load growth. This webinar will investigate two use cases in particular--survivability and flexibility--and demonstrate the role batteries play in both. Survivability will be discussed in the context of two microgrid case studies, one at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, California, and the other at the U.S. Coast Guard Training Center in Petaluma, California. Flexibility will be discussed in the context of pilot-scale demonstrations for this emerging use case that has particular value for large loads on an increasingly capacity constrained grid.
